^^ i think they signed baas to deal with the big bodied, scrappy pfs of the league. Gasol teared them apart last season in the finals, so I think Baas providesa big body to pound in the middle, similar to how the Lakers put in Mbenga to body Howard in the finals. The team definitely needs Gortat as the back-upcenter, Baas is too short to fill that role and Howard is frequently getting into foul trouble.
